Alison Strasser

Clinical Psychotherapist, Existential Psychotherapist

Paddington NSW

In Person + Telehealth

As a young girl I was attracted to Existential philosophy because it spoke to my own questions about meaning, purpose, relationships, life, death and everything between. This is still true for myself and helps me in finding the right questions when I work with clients. Therapy is a shared journey with moments of sadness and joy.

Leon Ari

Social Worker AMHSW, Psychotherapist

Darlington NSW, Glebe NSW

In Person + Telehealth

My approach is less about “doing to” and more about “being with” – meeting you where you are, supporting and guiding you back to yourself. Transformation happens less from driving an agenda to change, but through an acceptance and exploration of you as you are.
